The fresh and fruity 2016 Hendry Rosé serves up loads of strawberries in the flavors that are nicely tempered with its refreshing and crisp minerality. Pair with light appetizers or just sip by itself as a cocktail before the meal. (Tasted: October 4, 2017, San Francisco, CA)
The Hendry family has been farming the same vineyard in Napa since 1939. The lessons learned in more than 70 harvests provide us with a level of knowledge and a connection to the land that is rare in Napa. The Hendry Ranch is composed of 114 acres of vineyard situated in the hills north west of Napa. This latitude in the valley experiences substantial marine influence, and allows us to grow 10 different varietals, each carefully distributed among our 47 vineyard blocks. All Hendry wines are made from estate grapes, and 2011 will be the 20th vintage of the Hendry label. Through the subtle use of oak, and restraint in ripeness, our wines are crafted to highlight the terroir of the vineyard.
